Really looking forward to it.  So far we have 4 different coffees to taste and waiting on a couple more this week (they have all been shipped in good time so it is in the hands of the British posties.)

If you’re down to come – we look forward to seeing you!  We’ll put some photos, maybe some video too, up after the event along with the group’s tasting notes.  We’ll also announce the date of the Taste of the West Coast soon.

We’ll brew them like they ask us to, and maybe have a chat about them afterwards over a beer. All of the profits from the tickets sales go to Bikes To Rwanda.

We decided to make it a ticketed event after the demand for the last event was so high.  Tickets are for sale in the shop (and are apparently very heavy!)  This is a rare chance to taste espressos from a country with one of the best global reputations for espresso and speciality coffee.

We took recommendations from friends in and out of the industry and the roasters we have invited to take part are:

Altura Coffee Roasters
Supreme Coffee Roasters
Atomic Coffee Roasters
Tiger Mountain Coffee Roasters
Rocket Coffee Roasters

The last event was really interesting and a lot of fun, and we hope you can join us for this one!

If you are from New Zealand and fancy bringing along any traditional kiwi foods then please, please do!

Any questions then leave a comment or drop us a line.

Tickets!
